From Slashdot: "The player is 24x24x24 millimeters (about the size of the tip of your finger or [the] various small items [below]), weighs 18 grams, uses OLED technology, and comes in a variety of colors. The 1GB version is currently selling for $130 at Wal-Mart."

A Review

It's pretty... pretty pointless.

The last thing I need is a MP3 player you can lose down the back of the sofa.

...or completely crush if you sat down on it by accident.


Cool idea though. I'll bet the Japanese are behind it.

I think that is pretty darn cool.

I want one.

I'm surprised that it gets 15 hours of battery life.

I don't see the downside except the slow file transfer, or losing it, or a hard to read display. But who really reads the music display anyway?

Edit: Walmart online is out of the 1gb one, but has a 512mb version for $100. I think I'd wait to double the size for an additional $30.

That song transition suckiness seems pretty bad. Two second gaps and having every song fade in seem like it would make for a horrible listening experience.
